Actually, in my state(well, only certain counties within my state), a 12 y/o can get a special license to do just that, haul hay, drive to the bus stop, ect. It comes with restrictions, like no highways, and certain periods of the year, and certain times of the day.
..... Are you trying to get me put in another timeout? This one is screaming for DD to respond in kind!
I'll assist you in fending off to some degree... But you best keep a tight grip on the door handle if you are chumming the waters!
Let's get it back on track....
How do you and your fellow co-workers feel about:
1. 34 hour restart
2. 30 minute break
3. 11/14
In general please.

I just wanna know how a Combat Engineer ends up with a Ranger tab, and wings. A Master Paratrooper nonetheless.
And I weren't even in the Army.
I may be mistaken. I never jumped out of any perfectly good aircraft. I was going to for my 40th, but I took my son to Ireland instead.

I think he was talking about all the challenges.

No, he was just f***ing with him.
Like when he told me I should sell Avon products.
It's no big deal. He just doesn't get any donuts tonight.

Stop hijacking the dudes thread, and you should think about Avon. You wouldn't have to leave home at all.

IMO, I don't agree, nor do I disagree, with the 34 hr restart. Let me expand upon that. Is the 34 required to be taken? No. All it does, is zero out his/her 70(60), right?
I agree with the 30 min. And I agree with the 11/14, or some variance thereof.

The tab is awarded upon successful completion of Ranger School. Toughest school I ever participated in, SERE school the second. The wings? Well, pretty much any MOS can go to the school. But 12+ years at Bragg, and a stint in Italy, ya, a LEG I wasn't. And the Master Blaster is awarded upon being Jumpmaster Qualified, and having a required number of jumps performing JM duties, Safety duties, and "Mass Attack" jumps(number of birds dropping bird shit from the sky)

My dad was a Teamster, my granddad was a Teamster, and I'm still a Teamster. "Son, there are no thin skins in the Teamsters. If you can't take it, join the Marines, I hear they are little more polite over there." MN's not really mad at me though. He's mad at how our country has (d)evolved from what it was originally thought to be. We just kinda got off to a rough start. I'm actually the type of officer, who wouldn't do, some of things I said "I was allowed" to do. Because if I did, IMO, I would be violating his rights, even though the courts disagree with us(MN and I). But that discussion is over with I hope. Probably not, but one can always hope.

See, we just butted heads naturally. 12B's and 31B's are like, mortal enemies. And CE's never really got along with the infantry either, at least until we started dodging bullets together. Then it was Lord have mercy for the other team.

Carried the same, I always understood we had more in a squad than you had in a platoon.
Our unit was a combat support unit not pow or le ops.
